JohnRich 4 #51 March 12, 2006 QuoteIf it looks like a fight is ready to happen, tell the enemy, "I don't fight pussies. Even your friends think you're a pussy. When I kick your ass, they'll all jump me. Go ahead, if you can take me, tell them to leave. Otherwise, I'm outta here." Then leave. I used it successfully once. That's gutsy. It reminds me of that old quote: "Fortune favors the bold." And I'm a believer in that quote. It might just work. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scoop 0 #52 March 12, 2006 If its inevitable and you aint gonna get away, get in a pre emptive strike to give you space and time. If you can get the hell out of there, do it, if not, face the music. Its gonna get ugly. Kick, punch, scratch, gouge, headbutt, elbow, knee, spit and most importantly SHOUT! When you get a chance get the hell out of there. My brother got picked on in the town by some twat. My brother, being the mild mannered guy that he is didnt want anything to do with it and offered to shake the guys hand as a 'i dont want no trouble gesture'. He got punched in the face and fell down like a sack of shit. I personally think more people should do self defence classes. I dont even mean on a regular basis. A decent weekends course with a yearly refresher. So many techniques you can learn to maximise your safety. Whether that will help you with a gang is another matter. IMPORTANT: Some warning signs so you know when someones about to go and spank you all round the room... Clenched fists (obvious) Standing tall (intimidation) On tip toes (as above) Looking down (subconcious reaction to guard neck) Increased rate of breathing Nervous fidgeting (adrenaline at work) Wide body position (subconcious to look big and for stability) Skin colour is white (blood is rushing to muscles ready for fight or flight reflex - if someones red with anger then they probably arent going to hit you) Fixed gaze - (intimidate/phsych themselves up) Silence. (generally someone wont shout when they are about to strike out. Beyond reason at this point) If someone is acting like this you need to think about your options. Most importantly, which is the best way out! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Icon134 0 #53 March 12, 2006 QuoteWell I ended up taking it easy today, and decided that I wont be doing anything about the fight. In fact, it made me really think about the kinds of people I've been hanging out with, and to be honest I'm not planning to head that route. I hope those dudes who kicked me got their confidence; because sooner or later with it they'll make a wrong move. seeya on the flip side Sounds like you're doing the right thing here... don't tempt Karma...Livin' on the Edge... sleeping with my rigger's wife...

Michele 1 #55 March 12, 2006 QuoteSilence. (generally someone wont shout when they are about to strike out. Beyond reason at this point) Nope...not true. I am far more apt to strike while screaming then not... As a black belt in TKD, I've used my training exactly once...the mugger was pretty sorry he tried to take my purse. Other than that, I simply don't get into situations which would require me to fight. Should I need to, though, I can deal with it to the point of creating an opportunity to flee. And flee I shall. It's fine to fight in a controlled atmosphere - the studio or in a tournement ring. It is NOT fine in uncontrolled circumstances. If one finds themselves in a real, life-on-the-line sort of fight, if you can get away, please do so. If you can't get away, fight until you can...and then get the fuck outta Dodge. And go "crazy". Shout, imitate a Gorilla, growl...whatever it takes to make someone decide you're just not the person they should play with tonight. A friend of mine started barking and growling at a trio of muggers who had loosely cornered him...they decided to go find a sane victim. LOL! It worked for him...

Scoop 0 #56 March 12, 2006 I've just found that average joe psycho, the unpolished fighter, tends to go crazy and they dont say anything. Some will even hold their breath while they are having a fight. I've shouted when I've had to strike out and most people trained in a self defence or martial art will do so too. Not billy the street fighter though in my experience. Its good deterrant. I dont know any super martial arts but I was taught (and I paticularly like this) the palm heel strike amonnst other techniques. Nothing but a firm but fearsome two handed push in the aggressors chest whilst screaming on the top of your lungs 'GET BACK!' or similar. You'll be surprised how much power you can generate and therefore space you'll put between yourself and them with this, giving you chance to turn and run. I've seen it action loads of times and its a beauty, so simple to. Had a camera crew out on the streets with us for a UK police program and this poor lad started on one of my colleagues. When we watched the video we couldn't believe the distance that lad covered. Because he was off guard, distracted by the shouting, got stuck first and was off balance and also partly because this paticular officer is rather strong. I STILL SUGGEST YOU RUN AWAY IF POSSIBLE! I tried to find a video on the internet but I couldn't find one of a good demonstration. Maybe I could find a willing 'volunteer' QuoteLet them punch first with plenty of witnesses around I understand where your coming from but that could be you on your back straight away. If you maintain your reactionary gap of 4-6 feet you'll be able to see all of the aggresors body and have a better chance. Wont stop him hitting you as still close but give you moment to react and you'll see it coming. Dont allow them into your space and don't be scared of a pre-emptive hit to get them out of it. It is justified and its what most bouncers/doorman do and no police officer will question you furthur when you explain if you explain it rationally and justify your actions. Of course the easiest method is if you see someone starting to display those warning signs walk away but watch your back. EDIT: I have found awsome example of self defence and a pre-emptive stike. Very funny too. Note the defender standing in bladed stance, smalelr body area presented to aggresor and also looks non threatening but allows you to generate power. I'd love to know the moves this guy does. http://www.yourdailymedia.com/media/1137933856 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
akarunway 1 #57 March 12, 2006 OK. I HAVE to comment on this one. Was alone one nite a guy sucker punched me, kicked my ass. I walked away. Few days later got a couple buds (I'm a small guy) went back,(they where there to make sure he couldn't run) beat that MF half to death w/ a pickaxe handle. Got arrested. (he had also stolen from me). Cop asked me if it was worth it. I said hell yes. Beat the case cause the pussy WAS TO AFRAID TO SHOW HIS FACE IN COURT. SOMETIMES A MANS GOTTA DO WHAT A MANS GOTTA DO. DAMN THE CONSEQUENSES. And as someone else said. If you wanna go partying take a good friend w/. ALWAYS "And he who walks away lives to fight another day"I hold it true, whate'er befall; I feel it, when I sorrow most; 'Tis better to have loved and lost Than never to have loved at all.

5432154321 0 #59 March 12, 2006 Here is a perfect example of how these nutless pussies operate. It starts out as 3 "tough guys" trying to get one guy (who's not a "tough guy") to go in the alley so they can jump him, and like I said they are TALKING out their asses. Someone stops at a traffic light (who IS a "tough guy", well kinda) and sees whats going on and gets out, doesn't say a word and drops the antagonist. If you get what I'm saying, most of these punks can't even fight and would be lost without there buddies, and in this situation, the guys buddies didn't even do shit... All they could do was stand there in utter disbelief ... I love poetic justice. --- xenaswampjumper SPANKS THIS ASS!!! I WISH karenmeal spanked this ass too.....

BUT... these THUGS would have ended up doing the same thing to the other guy if they would have got him alone, and it would have been three on one. That’s why I call it poetic justice, the "Thug" got "Thugged". I may have a biased opinion towards "Thugs" and "Gang Bangers" Because I've been the guy on the ground being beaten unconscious, after beating the living shit out of one fare and square in a “one on one” fight. Personally, I wouldn't have cared had this guy been SHOT by the other "Thug" right then and there . I don't loose sleep over gang violence in the news, only when the innocent, women, or children are involved.
